[BCMA] women in museums

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

Hi Lorraine,

If you go back a bit into the BCMA postings, and also look at CMA's clip
service etc., you will find that there was a recent study done on women in
museums. It's from within the last year and covers such things as the
percentage of women in charge of museums, how much women make for each
dollar a man makes in the same position and so on. It can give you a good
idea of the lay of the land now vs. historically, and change over time. 

 

Can one of my colleagues remember the study and help Lorraine narrow the
search?

Subject: [BCMA] women in museums

 

Dear BCMA,

I am doing some research about the historical role of women in museums,
whether as curators, educators, benefactors, etc., or as subjects of
collections and exhibitions. Does anyone have any idea of a good source of
information, big or small, for this subject?

Thanks very much,

Lorraine Bell
